CANCER : Not all
cancers are the same. 1/3 is
curable. 1/3 is preventable.
2 factors of cancer
that cannot be controlled are AGE & FAMILY HISTORY.
CAUSES OF CANCER:
1. Smoking is very often the main cause of
cancer.
It kills us silently and drains money
from us quietly. There’re 4,000 harmful
chemicals (though in diluted form) in one stick of cigarette. Taking one puff is 600 times worse than
inhaling exhaust fumes from vehicles.
2. Some
foods that cause cancer is :
a. Barbecued
Food
b. Deep
Fried Food
c. Overheating
Meat
d. Food
that is high in fat causes our bile to secrete acid that contains a
chemical which is a promoter of cancer cells.
e. Food
that contains preservatives, too much salt or nitrates, e.g. canned food,
salted egg & veggies, sausages, etc.
f. Overnight
Rice (where Aflatoxin is accumulated)
g. Food
that is low in fibre : Our body needs 25gm of both soluble & insoluble
fibre daily. We must drink at least 1.5
litres of plain water a day.
h. Contaminated
Food (e.g. moulded bread causes our body to secrete toxins that may
eventually lead to liver cancer in the long run. Never eat bread that is kept in room
temperature for more than 2 days especially in a humid weather.)
3. Types
of fat and which is the best?
Highly Recommended for Health :
a. Olive
Oil - It does not absorb in our body.
b. Fish
Oil - Omega 3 (contained in NI’s Circulytes) has poly-unsaturated fat. It’s good for our brain cells.
c. Peanut
Oil - It contains Vitamin E. A small
dosage is recommended only.
4.
Not Recommended for Health
a. Vegetable
Fat - Palm oil is worse than coconut oil.
It is high in cholesterol and highly unsaturated.
b. Coconut
Oil - It has saturated fat.
5. Specific
Food & Beverages
a. Egg when
eaten too much can cause High Colon Cancer, Risk Ovary Cancer, Prostate Cancer.
b. Cabbage
is highly recommended for health reason.
c. Tomato
is best eaten raw with a bit of olive oil for better absorption. Other alternative is to take tomato sauce.
d. Coffee
is good because it contains 2 anti- oxidants.
Inhale coffee aroma for half each day is equivalent to eating 2 oranges
a day. However, the residue of
over-burned coffee is extremely bad for health.
It can cause cancer.
e. Tea,
as long as it is in its original tealeaves and not processed into BOH or Lipton
packets, it is good for health. Tea
contains 30 anti-oxidants. Recommended
dosage is cups a day.
EXERCISE AND BE FIT
Have a balanced lifestyle.
Exercise regularly.
F : Frequency : 3 to 5 times a week.
I : Intensity :
Exercise till we sweat and breath deeply.
T : Types of exercises : Find one that suits our age, lifestyle…
HAVE REGULAR CHECK-UP once we reach the
age of 45 & above, it is recommended that we go for regular comprehensive
health examination. Early detection may
save lives.
